## Questions & Answers

**Q: does it work with sony A55 camera**
A: Yes Alpha models all use the A-Mount lens systems.  Unless you are getting an awesome price for this lens or someone is giving it to you, I would not recommend this glass.  It will rapidly end up in your closet after a few uses.  Why? The zoom range is poor and the f-stop is quite narrow limiting your abilities to shoot in low light without a tripod and low shutter speed and high ISO resulting in grainy photos.  The Sony 75-300 originally came as throw away "kit" lens on the first gen. A100.For a long zoom lens I would recommend the Sigma 18-250 or Sony 18-250.  You will pay more for this lens but in the end you will find it has much more utility, smaller footprint, faster glass, your most useful lens and much more happier with your photos.

**Q: will this lens fit to Sony alpha55?**
A: Hello, Sony commitment to customer satisfaction is our top priority. This is compatible with the a55.

**Q: Will it work with the a290?**
A: Hi Bety V., yes this Sony SAL75300 lens will work on your Sony A290. They are both A-mouth type of lens/camera. -Ely

**Q: Will this fit My Sony A 550?**
A: Yes. It will.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent service. Lend quality as described and got what I needed
*by J***. on May 10, 2025*

Fantastic Lens. Amazing clarity and as described. Got the package earlier than expected. Fast service and delivery. Would love to buy again.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Incredible lens for the price
*by T***S on May 25, 2012*

Lenses, even a 'bargain' lens like the Sony 75-300, are expensive in absolute terms (at least at my budget level) so, like most folks, I researched my options to death. In the end, Sony offered a bundle of the 18-55mm and 75-300mm lenses with the a65 camera that effectively cut $100 off the price of this lens. Even at full price, it's an excellent value. The other Sony alternative, the Sony 70-300 G series lens, currently sells at $999. At the time, I could have picked up one at $899 but still it's a huge premium for some nice to have features and marginal image improvements (many of which the a65 can correct with firmware settings). If money were no object, sure I'd go G.The proof of the performance is in the photos. I uploaded 4 photos I took at a local zoo. If you're an amateur like myself wanting to up your vacation, family, etc photos to the next level an order of magnitude better than compact point and shoot or super-zoom (where I upgraded from) cameras this lens is for you. With no real experience (used an Olympus SLR in the '80s-'90s, Lumix FZ35 recently), I was able to take several hundred pictures at the zoo, most of which are 'pro' quality. All the pictures were taken hand held on an overcast, gloomy day but none were blurred by camera shake.I had considered the Sony 55-200mm lens that did comparatively about as well in reviews and is more compact. You save $50 but I find myself so often at the long end of the 75-300mm lens I'm very glad to have the extra 100mm to work with. Sometimes I hear people complain working at the long end of this zoom range is a real challenge. Personally, I find it pretty easy to work with and I'm certainly nothing special in terms of having a steady hand. In fact, that's the whole point of the Sony Alpha system. Coupled with the a65 body, the 75-300mm lens is a no-brainer to operate. Keep in mind on Sony bodies like the a65 this lens has an effect zoom range equivalent to a 35mm 112.5-450mm.I shoot a lot of macro shots of flowers. Initially, I though that's what I'd use the kit 18-55mm lens for. The 18-55mm lens is okay for this purpose; however, I find the 75-300mm usually produces far better results.If you're into pixel peeping to evaluate the quality of this lens with a comparison to the Sony 70-300 G lens, Google "Kurt Munger" for a great in-depth review.The main complaint I hear about the bargain range of Sony lenses in reviews is the cheap auto-focus. I find it works well. On rare occasions I'll manually focus particularly when I'm doing close-up shots in more of a macro mode. It's not silent but I wouldn't call it loud in absolute terms but I don't have any experience with more expensive Sony lenses or other manufacturers' systems to compare it to except Canon and Nikon kit lenses.Build quality is fine. Sure, the body is all plastic but it feels solid, not cheap at all. It comes with an attachable lens hood. Personally, lens hoods rarely block flair in my experience but, hey, it's free. It attaches to the lens in reverse for storage.I'm giving it 5 stars because I can recommend it without reservation and I'm extremely pleased with my purchase. I'm suffering from no G lens envy.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Better than expected.
*by B***B on July 3, 2013*

I looked all around for a 75-300mm lens and was surprised to find this one for such a good price. I was wary of making a purchase such as this on line but decided to take a chance. I placed my order and within an hour I received an email saying that it was shipped. The lens arrived in around 4 days and was better than I expected it to be. It was advertised as new but I took that with a grain of salt hoping for almost new at best. However, when I opened the box (the original box mind you) there nicely nestled in it was my "new" new lens. There were no marks, scratches, dents, or any other flaws I could see anywhere. The owners manual and all other parts were in place and for all intents and purposes were indeed new. I am very pleased with the lens as it has worked well with my camera and I'm sure will continue to do so for many years to come.
